I'm the assistant manager at a thrift store that is part and parcel to said non profit. We're a tiny store in comparison to some and yet we generate a healthy six figures a year to support our organization and we give away thousands of dollars worth of donations to those in need (clothing, furniture, household items, etc.).
I own and operate a small bakery as of two months ago. Prior to that, I worked as a safety consultant for an insurance company. I'm working harder than I ever have trying to get my new business off the ground, but I have never had a higher level of job satisfaction.
I have been a SAHM for 2.5 years. For the 13 years prior to that, I worked in various financial risk capacities for energy companies. I have a Chartered Financial Analyst designation.
In house CPA for an electrical contractor as of 2 months ago. Before that, an internal auditor for a credit union. I cut 20 miles one way per day off my commute and got a 30%pay raise to change companies.
